It is amazing what God has been doing in our lives and I truly feel so humbled by the experience. This Sunday, I had an opportunity to share my faith in front of my family and friends and share that God is Lord. We have been given His grace and it is through faith that we come to Him.
This Thursday, my parents made the drive from Sugar Land to join us for this very special ocassion. We have enjoyed relaxing days watching movies, playing with the pups, afternoon adventures around the neighborhood, grilling on the patio, and my baptismal service at the Heights. Here are some amazing pictures from our weekend.

The morning of my baptism, I was to arrive at the church by 10AM. I was so excited and anxious. My bags were packed and I was ready to go, but not without a few family photos.

Upon our arrival, I sent some love to my family, so incredibly thankful for their presence on this very special day, and made my way to the baptismal dressing area. 19 individuals including myself were proclaiming their faith through Baptism this morning and I felt truly honored to be apart of it.
Surrendering my life and control to the Lord
...Is Jesus Christ the Lord and Savior of your life?
Yes
Yes
You are burried with Christ in Baptism
...and we are raised to walk in the newness of life

I am beyond words with the outpouring of love that I have received from family, friends, and our Adult Bibe Fellowship. Words that come to mind include blessed, thankful, and honored. This was a very special moment in my life and I am so thankful for those that were able to share it with me. Here are a few pictures of my fabulous supporters, minus my working straightener and a broken necklace:)

I am so thankful to have shared this special moment with my family. I am so glad that they were able to make the drive up as this was truly a blessing to have them by my side. I also want to thank our best friends, Kristin and Michael. Not only have they both been a huge part of this process and an important part of our lives, but they also traveled hours upon end with Bryson to finish their vacation to Sea World a day early so that they could join us at the church Sunday morning. I hope they know how truly special that was to me:)
